Big Star planning to write
new song for tribute album, by
Jody Callahan (reprinted without
permission)
For the first time in two decades, there will be new music from Big
Star. The legendary Memphis band, which has reunited for several
concerts in the past few years, will write and record a new song for
this fall's tribute record.
I had a strong desire to do a new Big Star song," said
drummer Jody Stephens, who joins original band member Alex Chilton
in the reunited group. To make up for the absence of original
members Chris Bell and Andy Hummel, Stephens and Chilton are
joined by Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer of the Posies. It's
interesting when you go to write a song like that. Alex has a
solo career now, and that's defined by a particular style of
music that differs from what Big Star was doing. It could be
that Alex was waiting for the right moment to write this song,
Stephens added.
Also, Stephens said the roster for the tribute album is nearly complete.
According to Stephens, the unnamed record will have at least 11 songs,
including the new Big Star song (Hot Thing).
Confirmed acts and songs are:
Gin Blossoms Back of a Car
Matthew Sweet with Jody Stephens on drums & R.E.M. bassist Mike
Mills The Ballad of El Goodo
The Posies What's Going Ahn
Juliana Hatfield Don't Lie To Me
Teenage Fanclub Jesus Christ
The Idle Wilds You Get What You Deserve
Sister Hazel September Gurls
Kelly Willis When My Baby's Beside Me
Whiskeytown Give Me Another Chance
Wilco Thirteen
Son Volt Holocaust

It's
almost certain that we'll
never see Big Star,
Small World - A Tribute
To Big Star album.
Almost 6 years after
the first press info
about this project, nobody
can tell anything specific
about some future release
date or final tracklisting.
Over the years, many
of the planned songs
resurfaced on singles,
compilations or various
Internet sources (napster/audiogalaxy...).
This is my small contribution
to one of the biggest
groups ever. I couldn't
do this without a few Big
Star Internet resources,
which you can find listed
below. Please, visit
them - you'll find something
helpful there, I'm sure.

DEATH
VALLEY DAYS: Lost Songs
and Rarities 1985-1995,

An Alex Chilton song that he recorded in 1974. for Big Star's Sister
Lovers album. To some it may seem like images of bleak isolation, but
to me it's always sounded like a Sunday afternoon song, more a product
of being at a loose end than being in despair. Paul Ricketts
